SUBMITTING A YOUNG ADULT MANUSCRIPT FOR EBOOK PUBLICATION

WHO

Our preference is to work with authors who have already been published through a royalty-paying press and know the ins and outs of book promotion.

An established social media platform is a must, and we will not consider writers who do not have a well-followed blog, Facebook page or Twitter account.

WHAT

We're looking for Microsoft Word documents with a maximum of 350 pages of text with no photos, charts, illustrations, graphs, etc.

Manuscripts that have already been professionally edited will receive greater consideration.

Our preference is for good writing, the particular young adult topic is secondary in importance. However, books written with a series in mind or those that delve into the paranormal will have a slight edge.

We're looking for submissions that are not explicit or erotic in nature. In keeping with the young adult age range, manuscripts should be appropriate for a PG-13 audience.

We are seeking manuscripts that have never been published and are currently not available for sale in any type of format.

WHEN

We are looking to publish one ebook a month in 2012, and we currently have 6 slots remaining.

WHERE

The ebooks will be available through Kindle, Nook, iPad, Smashwords and as PDF downloads through Tribute-Books.com. They will retail between $2.99 and $4.95.

WHY

We are excited to work with previously published, young adult authors who enjoy promoting their work on a daily basis. Ones who know the ins and outs of promotion and the time and effort it takes to make an ebook a success. We are ready and willing to work with them every step of the way.

What sets us apart is our one-on-one interaction with our authors. We go the extra mile in doing everything we can to promote our titles on a daily basis even years after an ebook's initial release.

Our hope is that we are able to recruit talented writers of well-written, well-crafted stories in order to develop an eager fan base for the ebooks we publish. We want readers to be excited about the titles we produce. Young adult authors have the most devoted fan followings out there, and we'd like to introduce that audience to a whole new host of talent.

HOW

Interested young authors can submit their manuscripts via email to info@tribute-books.com.

Please include:

• the title(s) of your previously published book(s) along with the name of the publisher(s) - if available
• the name and email address of your editor - if available
• the links to your web site, blog, Facebook page and Twitter account
  Authors that do not have an established social media platform will not be considered for publication.

ROYALTIES

There is no charge for the authors we select to work with, and they will receive 50% of the net profits of their ebook sales in quarterly royalty payments.
